Chair to chair

Unless you haven’t been outside in the last 36 or so hours, you know that we’re going through one of our (more normal) high heat days. It quite sticky and freakin’ hot.

I call this chair to chair weather. I only want to move from one chair to the other. This weather isn’t enjoyable to me. Not one bit.

It doesn’t help that yesterday around 5pm, Em and I decide that it was time to install our window air conditioners. Well planned, I know. The entire process took less than 30 minutes but when we were done, I was a mess. My shirt looked like I got soaked by a hose. Gross is the best way to describe it.

Adler, I think, dislikes the heat as much as I do. He was cranky and you could just tell that he was uncomfortable. Abbi on the other hand had no concept of the heat. She would have run around for hours and at most had rosie cheeks. She was quite upset when we didn’t go outside after dinner. She had no understanding of the humidity, the uncomfortableness, my dripping shirt, or the fact that going outside would really put a damper on my chair to chair mentality. Interestingly enough though, if her food is room temperature she will tell you that it’s “hot, hot, hot”

I hope you’re staying hydrated and at least have a fan if not AC. This may be a play dough kind of eveing where we can be inside, make a mess, but avoid the yuck mother nature is sharing with us.

I’m with K’s Mom. I would have set up the sprinkler and set my chair near it. Have Abbi run through it and scream in delight while you get cooled off when it comes back your way : ) I *love* sprinklers!!
